    Default Archos 43 or Archos 70?

    Hi everybody, I'm new to the forum!
    I've been doing some research and I've found that the Archos 43 or Archos 70 are the most affordable non-phone Android device for me. But I cannot decide which one is better. Perhaps you guys could give me your opinions? Thanks in advance.

    I chose the A70-250Gb, which works OK after a few problems (but I am new to Android, so they may be my fault). I find it good for the web, E-books, Email, Video and MP3. The image handling is less than perfect. I loaded various files from a few K to HQ-14meg. There can be problems with rendering and zooming niggles, though it zooms quickly enough. Some of the early problems went after the last firmware upgrade.

    IMHO: The A43 16Gb looks very interesting, but the 8Gb is often much cheaper. A lot depends on eyesight and space-weight issues. If my eyes were a better I might have bought the A43-16Gb and liked it. However, my sight is poor. I wanted to read books, scan the web, check my Email, follow World-News and watch video. For all that I think the A70 works well. I chose it mainly for the big hard drive, but the other factors made my decision clear.

    Good luck.

    43 has a resistive screen... if I remember correctly. For me thats enough for me to take that out of the competition. Capacitive is the only way to go.
